description To study the effect of a cross-linking agent on the cross-linking degree and electrical properties of cross-linked polyethylene, different mass fractions of cross-linked polyethylene and their electrical properties were investigated. The cross-linking degree of cross-linked polyethylene with different mass fractions was tested by the extraction method. The breakdown field strength was tested by DC voltage breakdown tester, and the space charge injection of two kinds of cross-linked polyethylene was tested by Pulsed Electro-Acoustic. In addition, the resistivity was measured with conductivity test. The obtained results show that the crossing degree and breakdown field are the highest when the mass fraction of DCP is 2.5 wt% and BIPB is 1.5 wt%, which is 89.39% and approximately 310 kv mm ^−1 , respectively, while the cross-linking degree and breakdown field are 88.28% and approximately 340 kv mm ^−1 , respectively. At the same time, when DCP is used as the cross-linking agent, the amount of the same cross-linking agent is greater, which leads to more impurities contained in the material and increased space charge accumulation in the material; thus, the breakdown strength is lower than that of BIPB, and the conductivity is higher with the cross linking agent of DCP.
